The Million Mask March, also known as the Million Mask Movement is a worldwide, annual protest associated with the hacktivist group Anonymous occurring annually on Guy Fawkes Day, 5th of November.
The motive for the March varies, but includes some consistent themes prevalent in the Anonymous movement, including: corruption in politics, demilitarization, police violence, and self-governance.[1]
The marches are set in motion to allow ordinary citizens to collaborate in order to create societal change through alterations to their governments.
They are coordinated through a host of channels with most prevalent being word of mouth and social media. The Facebook group for the event marked over 18,000 Facebook users as going to the protests.

Anonymous, originally a group of internet forum users, first came into political activism from its battle against Scientology, referred to as Project Chanology. This culminated in a worldwide protest outside of Scientology churches across the globe.[3]
The first Million Mask March occurred in 2013, founded and created by John Anthony Fairhurst. Although the largest events occur in London and Washington, DC, there are smaller scale events across the globe, usually outside of government buildings.[4] The 2015 protests spanned over 650 cities.[5] On November 5th 2016, a metal band from India 'Night Wings III' released a song 'Anonymous - The Legion's Anthem'[6] as a tribute to the Million Mask March. The short documentary film Million Mask Movement by Vinu Joseph (2016) focuses on an aspect of the movement, and stars cannabis rights and free speech activist Ed Forchion.[7] |

What you mean is you don't know.
 The problem with all these protests is that they get infiltrated by anarchists who are only there to cause trouble. So rather than the objective of the protest the media focus on them and their destructive actions. And us tax payers have to foot the bill.  |
